Had this at the high cross (JDW) Leicester- cask. This is a very good beer. Very dark brown with thin lacing. Aroma is herbal sweets/liquorice. Taste is very nice- malty but herbal liquorice with nice hoppy bitterness. Mouthfeel is oily. Very good.

Cask conditioned handpump Eastgate Northampton 23/01/14 A dark brown coloured beer with a whitish head and lace. A very interesting beer for sure. Citrussy fruits and herbal notes. Lamon and lime. Some licorice. Menthol. Liked this and it’s very tasty but it’s a bit strange.

Hand-pulled pint at Liverpool’s John Lennon Airport on 16th Jan 2014.
Dark mahogany / teak like body with a full off-white head that gave some good lacing.
This beer leads with semi-sweet malty molasses, demerara sugar, rum, raisins, plums and mixed spices: very impressed to be honest, hit my sweet tooth right on the head.
Good body depth and the flavours just about hid the alcohol, a real pleasure to drink and I’d have had another if my flight hadn’t been called.
